RomDeLuxe Wild Series Diamond MDXC Magnum Single Cask Rum 150 cl 54,9%

Another mark from the same rare wooden column still in Guyana - this time under the name MDXC, distilled a couple of years earlier than its sister bottle.

Expert Description

RomDeLuxe Wild Series Unicorn Diamond MDXC is a Single Cask Rum from Diamond Distillery in Guyana, 18 years old, aged on ex-bourbon casks, bottled at 54.9% in a 150 cl magnum bottle.

The rum carries the mark MDXC, which, like MEE, is produced on the only column still in the world still made of wood. This release was distilled in 2004 and bottled in 2022, giving 18 years of ageing exclusively on ex-bourbon casks without added colour. The bottle was originally presented in the Unicorn Vol. 2 Tasting Kit alongside its sister release Diamond MEE, but is bottled as a standalone single cask release in magnum format.

Guyana is home to several of the world's last historic column stills, where each individual mark - like MDXC - represents its own unique distilling tradition.
